This was Jake's first year to play for North Jackson Youth Basaball. He loved it and we did too! We had a great team and a fantastic coach who really knew his stuff. Hands down baseball is my favorite sport that Jake plays. We had so much fun cheering him on and are looking forward to next season (which will be here before you know it due to the lousy turn around time of my blog posts...sorry!)
Playing outfield for the Green Machine...Jaaaaake VINE-YARD!!
My #1 on first base!
He may look small, but my guy could hit that ball.
Making contact
John Quitman up to bat
The highlight for all the boys (including Reidy-of course) was the concession stand that sold Icee Popsicles.
Cousin Blake would make it out for some games.
Jake on first again. To the left of Jake was Coach Leland Martin. Fantastic coach that informed the boys there would be no trophies unless they earned them. Awesome! Xan and I were very taken with his no nonsense approach to coaching the team. He was great and hopefully Jake will get to play under him again.
Ready to make his move..
Leland, working with Jake.
Mr. Attitude (He was always too cool for me when he was in the dug-out)
Run Jake Run!!!
Running to third
Up to bat...
Reidy and the obvious Icee stain on the shirt.
Reidy and his favorite Gurl. Between Laura and myself, we spent a good amount of time at these games keeping track of these two.

Jake and John Quitman...Teammates for life!
